Will the Primal Rage at Blood Lake leave you Scared Stiff?
It’s so satisfying that so many obscure films of the 80s are still being released on DVD and Blu-ray—with plenty more I’m still waiting for. So how important are these three to my extensive 80s horror collection? Well duh…super important … Continue reading
I Am Zozo on Halloween and Sick for Toys on Christmas
Halloween and Christmas flicks I Am Zozo and Sick for Toys are two very different movies, both with wickedly devilish names, but does either film do its holiday–and my holiday horror page–justice? I AM ZOZO (2012) Aside from the fact … Continue reading

It’s a slasher, the supernatural, and a little of both in this triple feature
An impulse buy, a Prime flick, and a premium channel feature made this a marathon that was all over the map. So let’s get to it. HELL FEST (2018) The director of Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension goes for a … Continue reading
The Chair needs to take a seat because the Necromancer is queen
Well, Necromancer is at least the film I liked better of these two lost flicks from 1988 that I dug out of my DVD collection. THE CHAIR (1988) There were a handful of fun prison/electric chair horror films released in … Continue reading
